Free Excerpt From The Book (requires Adobe Reader) SLAVES OF THE STARThe Star has been killing her slowly. I wanted to destroy it, at first, but she wouldn't let me. It's the future, she said. She's right – but I don't care. I only want to save those I love – and they're in the past. The Star can help me, but it's a two-edged sword. It may destroy us, but it's not evil. It’s completely neutral. It's mankind that is evil, not the Star. Destroy the Star? No. The Star can help me – and those I love. Am I evil? I don't know. But I've already made my choice. Secret of the Legion is the fourth book of a six part series that follows Legion trooper Thinker's adventures in the service of the people of ConFree. Other titles in the series include Soldier of the Legion, The Black March, Slave of the Legion, Cross of the Legion and Curse of the Legion.

Book Four of this exceptional series has one of the best first chapters I've ever read in a book of any genre. Thomas takes us into the grim life of a man without a past. This is a broken man who has been psyched and rehabbed, a scarred man who is slow and dull-witted, living in a bug infested cube, washing dishes in a filthy futuristic dive. The man knows horrific nightmares hold a secret to his past. Until the day his past kicks in the door of his wretched cube, the reader doesn't realize that this lost shell of a man is Beta Three, aka Wester, aka Thinker, once an immortal soldier of the Legion. The remaining members of his Beta Unit have tracked down and rescued Thinker for a reason. They need him whole and functional again to lead a mission that will impact the entire known universe… The Omnis threaten the galaxy and, as always, only the Legion stands between them and annihilation. Thomas brings his futuristic world to life, believably. .. In many ways, this is my favorite book in the series so far. Highly recommended. SECRET OF THE LEGION is book four in Marshall Thomas’s futuristic LEGION series. This time, Beta Three, called Thinker, finds himself washed of his memories, his past, and his passion. Once a warrior, he is now a dishwasher with no vision beyond the daily drudgery he now faces. ... he has no idea who he really is until he is rescued by the remaining members of his unit... his old comrades have a mission and they need Beta Three to help them achieve victory. As in his previous novels, Thomas’s characters have a level of depth and intensity that move this story way beyond a Sci-fi thriller, creating a compelling novel that will appeal to all readers... the “world” Thomas has created... is fascinating...it is part of the overall masterpiece and worth noting. SECRET OF THE LEGION is highly recommended.
